It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2006-6410 exists.\n\nAffected product: Vmware Workstation. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2006-6410/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2006-6410/index.md)","id":"CVE-2006-6410","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2006-6410/index.md","name":"CVE-2006-6410","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-p7m7-3xr3-3w7g"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"VMware virtualization software","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Local attackers can execute arbitrary code via a buffer overflow in a VMware ActiveX control, requiring user interaction to trigger the vulnerability.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"workstation","vendor":"vmware"}],"cvss":{"score":4.6,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[],"description":"Buffer overflow in an ActiveX control in VMWare 5.5.1 allows local users to execute arbitrary code via a long VmdbDb parameter to the Initialize function.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2006-08-27","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2006-08-27","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"2264","stars":null,"title":"VMware 5.5.1 - 'ActiveX' Local Buffer Overflow"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2006-6410","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"vmware:workstation","products":["vmware:workstation"],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2006"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":6,"next":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2006-6411"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2006-6409"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2006-12-10","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Use after free in VMware Workstation","id":"CVE-2019-5525","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-06-06"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Path traversal in VMware Workstation","id":"CVE-2019-5511","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-04-09"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in VMware Workstation","id":"CVE-2019-5512","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-04-09"},{"cvss_score":8.4,"headline":"Path traversal in VMware Workstation","id":"CVE-2023-20854","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-02-03"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in VMware Workstation","id":"CVE-2019-5526","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-05-15"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Other in Workstation","id":"CVE-2017-4939","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-11-17"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-1069","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2007-05-02"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"GPL-2.0-or-later","name":"Exploit-DB"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-07","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Local attackers can execute arbitrary code via a buffer overflow in a VMware ActiveX control, requiring user interaction to trigger the vulnerability.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2006-6410/"}
